Densification of activated sludge for better settling performances : experimental characterization in batch column and model parameters calibration

Conventional activated sludge (CAS) and densified sludge obtained using hydro-cyclone selective wasting were compared at a full-scale water resources recovery facility. The densified tested sludge, containing around 30-50% of aerobic granules, showed enhanced settleability with low and stable sludge...

520 |a Conventional activated sludge (CAS) and densified sludge obtained using hydro-cyclone selective wasting were compared at a full-scale water resources recovery facility. The densified tested sludge, containing around 30-50% of aerobic granules, showed enhanced settleability with low and stable sludge volume index (SVI) compared to CAS, which suffered recurrent filamentous bulking. Further in-depth batch settling tests were carried out using a 40 cm diameter column fitted with ultrasonic transducers to monitor both sludge blanket height and vertical velocity profiles. Hindered settling and compression parameters were calibrated from the experiment for latter modelling use. Test sludge displayed more than doubled settling velocities compared to CAS, with hindered settling velocities remaining >3 m·h-1 even at high solids concentrations of 6.85 g·L-1. The compression regime was attained at much higher critical concentration for the test sludge. It also displayed enhanced thickening properties, with concentrations obtained after 30 min of settling being 20.9 and 8.5 g·L-1 respectively for test and control sludge. This allows for a substantial reduction of recirculation rates in practice. These results open perspectives in optimizing existing plant operation as well as clarifier design and modelling using densified sludge
